use? liz crenshaw has answers. >> watching around watching the super bowl, or walk around instead of watching the super bowl. the first question is from e-mail. jim asks -- why do they use roman numerals? >> a complicated answer. we did some digs on the history. it started with super boll v, credited to lamar hunt, one of the godfathers of the modern nfl, by using roman numerals, he thought he made the game seem more important. that's it. >> okay. it feels impressive. right. the next question is from bonnie, who wants to -- she has three store credit cards, with zero balances. she'd like to close them out. >> should she close them? we turn directly to fico. the short answer is it probably won't help your credit score, and fico never recommends

closing an account just to the sole purpose of raising your score. that's because it takes into account something called credit utilization ratio, which looks at your total used credit versus your total available credit. accounts with zero balance help this ratio. however, if you're tempted to charge more than you should just because you have more credit, then closing those cards might be your best bet. all right. and for those of you who like to walk, one viewer is trying to get in shape. she wants to use a pedometer. she wants to know how to consume which one? >> "consumer reports" gave us this answer, it said in february 2012, it tested 16, and found that you don't have to spend much money to get accurate step count results. one of the ten regular pell dom terse, it tested that they all scored well. prices range from $5 for the walmart sportline step and distance to $30 for an omron

go-smart "coomer reports" got great counts that tested gps watches, and the gps watches also track distance and speed, so they might be better suited for those who want to monitor their progress more closely than the average walker. you don't have to spend a lot of money to count your step. if you have a question, send it to us at nbcwashington.com, connect with me on twitter, or facebook. they also have appear app. for your iphone for a pedometer. i don't know how accurate it is. >> "consumer reports" didn't do those things, just the ones you actually wear. about 150 students got a dental checkup today as part of the 11th annual give kids a smile day. students here from bruce monroe elementary got free care from students at howard university's college of dentistry. organizers say the event allows them to reach students who can't afford to see a dentist. >> even in this day and age where there's so much going on,

so much access, some children still suffer from dental disease. because of that, this is as outreach that tries to get to those children. >> this program raises awareness of the important of making sure everyone has access to dental health care. in 2007 a 12-year-old from prince george's county died from a tooth infection that was easily treatable. saturday's groundhog day, but we heard from doug, we have at least a week of winter coming up. >> i'm going to be really anticipating what the groundhog says this year, as i do every year. every year -- normally he's wrong, 60% of the time, but hey it will be okay. i think he will see a shadow. take a look at this. here's a winter picture, ice in new market in frederick county. take a look at that, sent to us by noah. this fence all iced up as a

result of that pudding in front of the it, and cars going along and splashing it up. temperatures never got above the freezing market. many of us stayed below freezing. right now we're sitting at 28 degrees, winds out of the west-northwest, gusting to near 30, and that puts our windchills way down there. 23 current temperatures, 21 in gaithersburg, but once again, take a look at thinks windchills. currently in the single digits. after gaithersburg, 6, 9 in dulles, 12 towards camp spring. you know it's going to be one cold night tonight. no rain to talk about, no snow to talk about, but over the next couple days, we will see that chance. we have a couple chances for dusting other coating here. most of this will be dry snow, so 34 degrees for your seared, 41 on sunday, 36 on monday, and 41 on tuesday.
